command_oriented_history
     If  set, bash attempts to save all lines of a multiple-line command in
     the same history entry.  This allows  easy  re-editing  of  multi-line
     commands.

previous-history (C-p)
       Fetch the previous command from the history list, moving back
       in the list.
next-history (C-n)
       Fetch the next command from the history list, moving  forward
       in the list.
beginning-of-history (M-<)
       Move to the first line in the history.
end-of-history (M->)
       Move  to  the  end  of the input history, i.e., the line cur-
       rently being entered.
reverse-search-history (C-r)
       Search backward starting at the current line and moving  `up'
       through  the  history  as  necessary.  This is an incremental
       search.
forward-search-history (C-s)
       Search forward starting at the current line and moving `down'
       through  the  history  as  necessary.  This is an incremental
       search.
non-incremental-reverse-search-history (M-p)
       Search backward through the history starting at  the  current
       line  using a non-incremental search for a string supplied by
       the user.
non-incremental-forward-search-history (M-n)
       Search forward through the history  using  a  non-incremental
       search for a string supplied by the user.
history-search-forward
       Search  forward through the history for the string of charac-
       ters between the start of the current line  and  the  current
       point.   This  is a non-incremental search.  By default, this
       command is unbound.
